Hi,
This series aims to get rid of the distinction between QObject, that
must use qobject_incref/qobject_decref and its various derived types
that have to use QINCREF/QDECREF. Instead, replace it with
qobject_ref/qobject_unref for all types.
I _like_ the fact that you don't have to use a different thing for the
base class compared to the derived classes. I'm not sure I like that
the name got longer in the QINCREF -> qobject_ref direction, but it got
shorter in the qobject_incref => qobject_ref direction, so maybe
bikeshedding on the final name is still possible?
Marc-André Lureau (3):
compiler: extend QEMU_GENERIC to handle more arguments
qobject: assume base of a qobject is at offset 0
qobject: replace qobject_incref/QINCREF qobject_decref/QDECREF
But I definitely think this is 2.13 material. It is easy to do
(mechanical conversion in 3/3) but a conflict magnet, so it would need
to land early after the freeze is lifted.
